Congratulations. I didn't even think of that one, even though I went by it recently...jwhouk wrote:Wow. This one's hard, even for me...Dave wrote: Q: Where have we seen something ceramic being scratched, and what sound did it make?

I think it's a total of six: Phix, Shelly, Medeia (RIPB), and three anonymous apos seen in this flashback. A seventh specific apo was named (the one who challenged Shelly's legitimacy as a sphinx, and then became a split-plate luncheon special) but we never actually saw it.jwhouk wrote:And now, a counting game:
How many different Sphinxes have we met (so far) in the comic?

Gaah. How could I have missed the Wahnee males? Even though they can't morph they're clearly in the canon as sphinxes, and we've certainly met Dad.jwhouk wrote:I think the both of you got it, since I wasn't specific and said "speaking parts."
Only four Sphinxes have had dialogue in the strip: Shelly, Mr. Wahnee, Phix, and Medeia.
If you guys want to play rock/paper/scissors to determine the next question, go for it.
Luci feels that Shelly bumbles through life, never really planning or committing herself to anything, and yet keeps being rewarded for her lack of direction and commitment. Sort of, Shelly doesn't really deserve how good life is for her.lake_wrangler wrote:OK, then.
Q: Why does Luci dislike Shelly so much?
Nice phrasing. Just confusing enough to not give it away...Dave wrote:Q: What does Nudge like, that her roommates do not?
You know, if you give the answer, with enough context to show you didn't just pull the answer out of a hat, points will still be awarded. (That, or it will point someone else in the right direction...)MerchManDan wrote:Rrrrgh, I know the answer to that but can't find the comic!! How do you guys do this?

You just need to type up a full searchable transcript of the entire run of Wapsi Square, complete with notation on setting and characters. Then you'll be all set.MerchManDan wrote:Rrrrgh, I know the answer to that but can't find the comic!! How do you guys do this? Keyword searches aren't helpful at all.
Or, you know, you could just download a copy of a work someone's already done beforehand.Catawampus wrote:You just need to type up a full searchable transcript of the entire run of Wapsi Square, complete with notation on setting and characters.
